Restreaming (Relaying) a FMS stream to another FMS using rtmpdump and/or ffmpeg

Hi,

I am trying restream a stream of my own to a lower quality.

the Code i'm using is

Quote:

C:\rtmpdump-2.3>rtmpdump --live -r "rtmp://1.2.3.4/live/feed1" -p "http://website.net" -W "http://xyz.net/mediaplayer.swf" -q | ffmpeg -i - -re -isync -acodec libfaac -ab 128000 -ar 32000 -vcodec libx264 -b 600k -f flv "rtmp://5.6.7.8/live/feed1relay"

The error message is

Code:

Can i get some help with it?

If i use the above code to save it to a file, it works.

But i cannot seem to restream it.

Can I please get some assistance with this.

Thank you in advance!

Re: Restreaming (Relaying) a FMS stream to another FMS using rtmpdump and/or ffmpeg

Your ffmpeg binary was built with --enable-librtmp, therefore you should be doing all of this in ffmpeg, and not using rtmpdump at all.

Code:

ffmpeg -i "rtmp://1.2.3.4/live/feed1 pageUrl=http://website.net swfurl=http://xyz.net/mediaplayer.swf live=1" -re -isync  -vcodec libx264 -b 600k -acodec libfaac -ab 128000 -ar 32000 -f flv "rtmp://5.6.7.8/live/feed1relay"

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I've gotten past the first bit now.

I am unable to stream to any of my servers with this, it says

"rtmp server sent error"
"rtmp server requested error"

rtmp://xx/xx/xx - Operation not permitted

before that It detects the live stream running all the hardware streaming etc..

Any help?

Re: Restreaming (Relaying) a FMS stream to another FMS using rtmpdump and/or ffmpeg

Try adding "-loglevel debug" to the command, and give us the output. Most likely your output servers require authentication before you can send them a stream.

Thank you.

Got it working.

Much appreciated hyc!

So what was the actual problem? You should always let everyone else know the solution, after you've made everyone read through your problem.

Oh sorry, i thought I did post the sol.

Just had to disable all the html/swf protections.

RTMPdump has been unable to fake the pageURL so far...
It oddly works with disabled protection.

Now i'll be working on how to secure the setup, this is very very unsecure in my line of work.
